#endsars: Sporadic Shootings In Abuja As Soldiers Disperse Protesters by Le124(op): 10:16am On Oct 20, 2020
There was tension in some parts of Sokale and FO1 areas of Kubwa on Tuesday morning following an invasion by soldiers who fired sporadically into the air to disperse some #EndSARS protesters who had gathered to begin the day’s protest.

While passers-by scampered to safety, residents who were still in their houses immediately shut their doors and windows even as motorists on the Bwari-Dutse Alhaji road became stranded due to the ensuing gridlock on the route.

The protesters had erected a barricade at the Sokale roundabout area and Winners road and had begun settling into the protest before the invasion by soldiers in three trucks.

Meanwhile, hoodlums have taken over some parts of the Apo Mechanic village, attacking motorists and attempting to loot some shops in the area.

The hoodlums who had earlier attacked #EndSARS protesters the previous day were said to have mobilised to the area on Tuesday morning to halt the peaceful protest against police brutality.

Re: #endsars: Sporadic Shootings In Abuja As Soldiers Disperse Protesters by DisLifeSha:
I wonder why the federal government has deployed soldiers to cease the protest. I wonder if we are even in a democratic state. Nigeria is gradually heading to anarchy. Restructuring or disintegration is the way forward.

P.S - I dedicate this first to comment to all my Warri people, Ughelli people and Delta State for their #EndSars #EndSwat protest.

P.S.S - We should use our brain when protesting as these soldiers won't take it easy with anyone. A dead person can't reap the benefits of these protests. Please carry the Nigeria flag when protesting and in a peaceful manner

This is not going to help. Using violence to disperse protesters may backfire on the government.
I see absolutely no reason for the army to brought into this.
This is how revolutions start.
Let the government learn from Cuba, Venezuela and the Arab spring revolutions in Algeria, Egypt, Yemen etc.
The more you apply violence, the more the protesters resolve harden.

Re: #endsars: Sporadic Shootings In Abuja As Soldiers Disperse Protesters by Neurotika:
The protesters are as confused as the government. Of all the problems of this country, you singled out only SARS. Now when government answers that, you suddenly realize SARs isn't the only problem. Yet you want them to take you serious by constantly shifting the goal post. When the word revolution is called you'll call it political. "This is a start" is the usual rant...yet what's the assurance you'll get this opportunity again?. Nigeria's problem is deeply rooted in ALL the administrative structures designed by this corrupt and incompetent leaders. This should be the focus. And it goes beyond writing ambiguous words on placards. Men of integrity and competence needs to come together in their numbers and influence the system via elections. Imagine if all the people carrying placards all agree to a particular candidate in the upcoming elections. Imagine the broad impact this will have on the current system. The problems of this country is deeply rooted in the fundamentals and it's only an effective leader that can solve them. Treating symptoms of a disease won't get anyone anywhere. But then, you're all enjoying your rage so knock yourselves out....

After carrying out a discreet investigation on the roots of thug attacks on #EndSARS protesters in Nigeria, i want the world, to hold the
@OfficialAPCNg
govt, at all levels, and the N.U.R.T.W responsible for it.

Please Folded hands Retweet aggressively.

Here is my findings.

As soon as the #EndSARS protest blew quickly, beyond proportion, @MBuhari wasn't happy about it. The protest was fast spreading like wildfire across Nigeria & the rest of the world. Nigeria was fast becoming a center of attraction to the world.

The protest must be stopped

The government of @MBuhari quickly introduced the carrot and stick approach. They promised sugar coated reforms, and secretly instructed the
@PoliceNG to use maximum force in bringing the protest and gathering of #EndSARS protesters to an end.

But they failed.

Jimoh and many others were killed, when the @PoliceNG tried implementing those orders. Nigeria and the government of @MBuharicame under severe criticism from the international community, over the use of force and police brutality, on peaceful #EndSARS protesters. Yet the #EndSARS protest continued, and protesters presented their demands before the world. Why they kept remaining on the streets. Efforts at compromising the protest by this government, yielded no results, because the #EndSARS protest had no known leaders.

Due to local and international pressure, the government of @MBuhari, used the backdoors to ENDSARS. But in less then a week, they brought in SWAT. That singular move, hightened the level of suspicion, to the sincerity of purpose, in the eyes of the #EndSARS protesters.#EndSARS protesters, held their protest in more cities & towns across Nigeria, increased their demands. Which includes a better Nigeria, & a whole lot of other demands. The government became furious, calling #EndSARS protesters a national embarrassment to
@MBuhari's govt.

The govt decided to paint it a political undertone. Alleging that, the @OfficialPDPNig,is sponsoring #EndSARS protesters. So @OfficialAPCNg had some secret meetings with members in the most affected states including Abuja. With support from Northern Governors, as a block.

The 5th columnist from Buhari's govt, who attended the meeting, made their demands known to attendees. Their demands are
(1) the government of president MBuhari must be protected at all cost.
(2) The #EndSARS protest in Nigeria, must come to a stop by any means possible.

But because of the backlash received from the use of brute Force on peaceful #EndSARS protesters, the masterminds, decided to activate option B plan.

Which is to use the services of their ever ready National Union Of Road Transport Workers. N.U.R.T.W as Thugs. They quickly summoned it's national president, Alhaji Tajudeen Ibikunle Baruwa. Who in turn activated all states chapters of N.U.R.T.W for the hatchet job. They also instructed @OfficialAPCNg party stalwarts in opposition States, to go back home, & arrange internal Thugs.

Don't also be fooled by @jidesanwoolu disclaimer of those thugs, that attacked peaceful #EndSARS protesters at Alausa.

Ask him these questions. How did those thugs conveyed themselves to the protest ground? Was it not through Lagos State BRT? Let him arrest Adagun. They used N.U.R.T.W members as thugs where @OfficialAPCNg is in charge. Asked APC stalwarts to recruit local thugs, in states were APC is opposition, & instructed the @PoliceNG & other security agencies not to arrest those thugs. As seen in this picture. #EndSARS

Abuja #EndSARS protest was the most atrocious of all. They used N.U.R.T.W to coordinate those attacks on peaceful #EndSARS protesters. 90% of those thugs were imported into Abuja, from Nasarawa and Kano states. With the full backing of their state governors.
Many of those thugs are illiterates, & were lied to by their sponsors, that CHRISTIANS are about to take over Nigeria, & to overthrow govt of
@MBuhari That they should not let that happen. That they should fight them off the road. They handed them over to N.U.R.T.W Abuja.
